Panda Bear has announced his new album 'Sinister Grift' and shared early single 'Defense'
The album features a rock ensemble sound, with Lennox playing most instruments and guest appearances from collaborators and Animal Collective bandmates.
Panda Bear has announced his new album 'Sinister Grift'.
The project of Animal Collective's Noah Lennox has also shared the lead single 'Defense', featuring Cindy Lee on guitar. It marks his first solo release in five years, following his previous work with Animal Collective and collaborations with artists like Daft Punk, Solange, Dean Blunt, Paramore and Jamie xx.
The album was recorded at his Estudio Campo in Lisbon, Portugal and co-produced with his Animal Collective bandmate Josh Dibb, who says: "Working on this record felt like a sacred and warm return. Noah and I first started putting music down to multitrack cassette in 1991. 32 years later and working in the same fashion, two friends alone in a room searching for sounds and feelings that move us, I am very proud of what we created together. Sinister Grift feels like the songwriter I've known for over 30 years but also feels like some sort of new chapter for Noah. Couldn't be more proud of the result."
Panda Bear has also announced tour dates for 2024 and 2025, including a run with Toro y Moi in North America and dates across Europe and the UK. An intimate show at London's The Lexington is scheduled for 10th December.
